Don’t dress like everybody else – find cool and unique T-shirts for yourself
Finding cool unique T-shirts out there might turn into a real Don Quijote quest for you – sometimes you just feel as if you were fighting windmills! Everybody thinks they offer unique stuff and everybody thinks they wear unique stuff. You might think that by entering some fancy store in nearest shopping mall makes you cool and unique, but it’s just not so because of two main reasons:
- you don’t want to pay too much for something that is not worth it;
- you don’t want to wear what everybody else is wearing.
Therefore it’s highly recommendable that you go indie. Following is the list of five independent T-shirt labels picked by us which might help you with your decision to stand out from the rest by chosing your new unique and quality T-shirt!
Confound Clothing – quality over quantity
Confound Clothing is a newly-established clothing company from UK. They feature hand-drawn, digitally colored designs which will surely get you noticed without screaming all over with flourescent colors. Quality T-shirts plus unique designs with nice prices is a triple win situation.
Confound Clothing T-shirt designs
- Mission – creating designs inspired by anything really: from art, trough music, to the picture of your mamma (not really);
- Designs – sharks and wolves images can be found almost everywhere. However, guys at Confound strive to make their images different, putting their own designer signature to them by a bit bold inking and yet delicate coloring;
- Offer – there are currently three designs to choose from, which is not much, but is certainly enough for a promising start. Designs are printed onto Froot Of The Loom 100% cotton 165gm T-shirts;
- Pricing – shirts are priced £14.00 each, but if you choose all three you can get the bundle for only £30.00. Shipping is free in UK, £5.00 in Europe and £7.50 for the rest of the world.
More More More – less is more
More More More is an indie clothing label from Sweden which goes after less is more principle with their designs.
